Suikoden I & II Featured in This Week’s eShop Update

As the weekend rolls around, we’re in for another exciting set of game releases on the Nintendo Switch eShop. The spotlight this week shines brightly on the Suikoden I&II Remaster—perfectly timed with the upcoming MAR10 celebrations! Let’s delve into everything you need to know.

Leading the fresh releases is the revamped version of the classic RPGs, Suikoden I&II. Originally introduced by Konami back in 1995, these games made their mark on several platforms, but never graced a Nintendo system—until now. With their debut on the Switch, these remastered editions offer enhanced HD graphics and added support features, providing an ideal opportunity for newcomers to dive into this beloved series.

And speaking of beloved series, let’s not forget that Mario Day is just around the corner. Yes, March 10th—or MAR10, clever right?—is our annual tribute to Mario. Nintendo is getting into the spirit with some significant discounts on Mario titles such as Super Mario Bros. Wonder and Super Mario RPG, with discounts hitting 30% off, which is pretty generous for first-party Nintendo games. If your collection is missing any of Mario’s escapades—or those of Toad and Luigi—now’s a brilliant time to fill those gaps. Plus, don’t forget you can earn My Nintendo Points with your purchases through the end of the month.

For those who’ve been keeping an ear out for Nintendo Music releases, this week’s addition is the soundtrack from The Legend of Zelda: A Link to the Past. It’s now available on Nintendo’s music streaming app, so make sure to give it a listen. We’ll be chatting about it in our next Pure Nintendo Podcast, too.

With a slew of new titles to choose from, make sure to review the complete list below. Which of these games are calling your name this weekend?
